Transport and Infrastructure have been identified as important prerequisites to
enhancing social and economic development. ESAMI is aware that without a
critical mass of trained staff in the transport sector, its operational performance
will remain poor, hence the introduction of MBA (TELM).
In addition to classroom session, the students will undertake a one to two weeks
overseas tour as part of the programme. They will be able to visit a number of
transport and logistics enterprises and have the benefit of exchanging experiences
with their counterparts. MBA-TELM courses are offered in the evenings from
